Ukraine stands ready to initiate the establishment in Kyiv of the headquarters of the International Office to Counter Disinformation and Propaganda. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a speech at the general debate of the 75th session of the UN General Assembly.
The Head of State noted that cataclysms have become commonplace, and the world quickly forgets the terrible news when a new information bomb explodes on the global agenda.
At the same time, the President stressed that our planet is not so big, and there is no longer the notion of someone else’s war. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the information threats of the world, when misinformation and fake news can affect world markets, stock markets and even the election process.
“Ukraine, as one of the states that has been actively opposing propaganda and information attacks since 2014, stands ready to initiate the establishment in Kyiv of the headquarters of the International Office to Counter Disinformation and Propaganda,” the Head of State emphasized.
